HONG KONG, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Innovative technology brand TECNO today launched the groundbreaking CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition with an industry-first coffee grounds back cover. Designed in collaboration with LOEWE., the German high-end TV and audio brand, the CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition offers modern users a super stylish eco-friendly choice, with waste coffee grounds inventively reused in the construction of the smartphone’s back cover. The new edition features a striking nature-inspired green color blocking aesthetic that reflects commitment to sustainable and stylish design. With TECNO’s advanced technologies in material innovation and LOEWE.’s renowned German craftsmanship and expertise in premium product design, the CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition fuses pioneering eco-friendly qualities and eye-catching fashion with the CAMON 30 Series’ flagship imaging experience.

Style- and eco-conscious coffee lovers will find coffee culture and the natural process of growth are reflected in the CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition’s sleek visual aesthetic, interpreting sustainable elements and stylish inspiration. Merging TECNO’s innovative material technology with LOEWE.’s CMF design excellence, the green gradient design is inspired by the life cycle of natural leaves with a color palette that represents the growth and life of the green leaf. Reflecting the complex processes involved in producing the device’s environmentally friendly coffee grounds back cover, the device’s design is a celebration of nature, technology and fashion working in harmony for the good of the planet. Meanwhile, as one of the hottest and most enduring trends, color blocking adds a fresh, modern touch with sophisticated appeal. The new special edition combines TECNO’s fashionable flair with LOEWE.’s pursuit of excellence in quality, craftsmanship, and technology with meticulous attention to detail.

It’s estimated that we consume over 2 billion cups of coffee every day worldwide, with millions of tons of waste coffee grounds going to landfills each year. These waste grounds decompose and produce harmful greenhouse gases such as methane and carbon dioxide. As a pioneer in advanced materials with a commitment to the environment, TECNO developed the new CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition with a back cover constructed using waste coffee grounds as one of the raw materials in a creative effort to reduce the environmental impact of coffee consumption. Achieving USDA Bio-based certification status, the innovative, industry-first coffee grounds phone back cover coating is composed of more than 25% bio-based material, bringing users a device that showcases both their eye for style and their passion for protecting our planet.

The entire manufacturing process of the coffee grounds back cover uses no organic solvents, no additional water consumption, and is entirely solar powered. This innovative approach allows the product to outperform traditional synthetic and animal leathers in terms of appearance, durability, texture, feel and environmental friendliness. The cover not only provides a luxurious touch, but also UV resistance, as well as temperature and humidity resistance. For every phone cover manufactured, approximately 0.8g of waste coffee grounds will be used. According to the whole life cycle assessment of coffee grounds leather products (ISO 14040:2006 and ISO 14044:2006), the recycled coffee grounds back cover reduces the consumption of non-living resources (fossil fuels) by approximately 49.6% and the contribution of carbon dioxide emissions to global warming by 46.3% compared to traditional leather cover materials over a full life cycle. Overall, the design not only reduces the waste of water, but also reduces the pollution caused to the environment by waste and organic solvents.

“The CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition exemplifies TECNO’s dedication to creating stylish, environmentally friendly products,” said TECNO’s Product Design Team. “By incorporating waste coffee grounds into the back cover, we’ve crafted a unique, Eco-conscious smartphone that stands as a design masterpiece and a pioneer in sustainability.”

“The LOEWE. Design Studio brings a rich history of excellence in product design in consumer electronics, particularly in premium products,” said Marco A. Mueller, Director Design and Design Management at LOEWE Design Studio. “LOEWE’s emphasis on high-quality design and innovative technology aligns perfectly with TECNO’s forward-thinking approach. This partnership allows both companies to leverage each other’s strengths, creating products that stand out in the competitive smartphone market.”

 

The CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition is available across the new CAMON 30 Series, made up of the flagship CAMON 30 Premier 5G, CAMON 30 Pro 5G, CAMON 30 5G and CAMON 30. The Series empowers users to master professional-level videography and photography with supreme style. The CAMON 30 Premier 5G delivers powerful dual chip imaging with the Sony CXD5622GG Imaging Chip, bringing 4K 30fps full-scene AI-NR HDR video to smartphones for the first time and allowing users to capture beautiful scenes in challenging conditions, from auroras in the poles to dusk in the desert.

Frost & Sullivan evaluates companies through a rigorous benchmarking process across two core dimensions: strategy effectiveness and strategy execution. MatchMove excelled in both, demonstrating its ability to anticipate market evolution, align innovation with customer needs, and deliver scalable financial infrastructure across diverse markets. “MatchMove empowers enterprises with a unified platform for digital wallets, card issuance, remittance, multi-currency settlement, and Web 3.0, enabling seamless and compliant global money movement,” said Dewi Rengganis, Senior Industry Analyst, ICT at Frost & Sullivan.

Saber Astronautics releases new spacecraft constellation control and automation software SABER COMMANDER

Published

on

By

SYDNEY, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Saber Astronautics today announced the release of Saber Commander, its new spacecraft and constellation operations software.

Saber Commander builds on the operational heritage of the Predictive Ground station Interface (PIGI), recognised in the space industry for pioneering techniques in digital twin and machine learning to manage individual satellites. Saber Commander preserves that foundational heritage while supporting increasingly complex satellites, constellations, and mission requirements in the modern space age.

Originally developed in 2010 and released in 2012, PIGI pioneered new capabilities as Saber’s flagship operations software. Listed as a NASA Spinout, it was the first product globally to successfully solve spacecraft diagnostics using machine learning, allowing operators to learn the root cause of health problems on a spacecraft. 

PIGI represented a new generation of software leading efforts to visualise satellite constellations and was the first Unity game engine digital twin to receive fielding authority by the US Space Force.  This eventually led to the production of Saber’s Space Battle Management System (SBMS) which now serves as the protect-and-defend tool accepted across US Space Force Combat Command Deltas.

“PIGI was about reducing the barrier to entry to satellites, making it easier and safer to fly” said Dr. Jason Held, CEO of Saber Astronautics. “Saber Commander carries that heritage forward, with new automation, visualization, and operational scale that modern satellite constellations require.”

Developed in close collaboration with Saber’s own satellite operators, Saber Commander reflects the company’s direct operational experience through its Responsive Space Operations Centres (RSOC), in Australia and the United States. Saber currently controls 36 tonnes of spacecraft in orbit, giving the company daily exposure to the real pressures faced by mission teams.

That experience shaped Saber Commander around practical needs: faster situational awareness, clearer decision support, reduced manual workload, and automation.

 “Saber Commander takes everything we learned from our first generation of products and turned it into a platform built for the realities of modern space operations,” says Chris Schuck, Head of Product Engineering. “Larger fleets and congested orbits demand a smarter approach. We designed Commander hand-in-hand with operators to bring automation, commanding, monitoring, and situational awareness together into a single platform to reduce operator workload while giving greater confidence and control. I’m incredibly proud of what our team has built, and excited to see what our customers achieve with it.”

How Curb Flow Is Driving Growth for Ride Demand and Technology Partners Across the US, UK and Canada

Published

New data from GoRide partnership shows drivers on Curb Flow spend 26% more time on trips and complete 16% more hired miles

LONDON, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Curb, a leading mobility technology provider specialising in metered taxi payment systems, dispatch platforms and demand aggregation solutions, is opening its Curb Flow network to new demand and technology partners across the US, UK and Canada following the full public launch of Curb Flow in London. With the North American network already at scale and London now live, Curb is releasing new data from its GoRide partnership in Washington DC that demonstrates the impact of connecting supply partners to aggregated demand through a single platform.

Curb Flow enables taxi fleets and technology providers, including those operating their own meter and dispatch systems, to integrate with the platform and gain access to demand from sources including Uber, Curb’s consumer app, Taxi Butler, HQ and Gridd. The open integration model means drivers and fleets using existing technology systems can join the network without switching platforms.

GoRide is a taxi technology system provider operating in Washington DC that integrated into Curb Flow as a supply partner, giving its drivers access to Curb Flow’s ride demand. The partnership demonstrates how taxi technology providers with their own systems can connect to the Curb Flow network to unlock additional trip volume for their drivers. In Washington DC, Curb Flow now accounts for nearly half of all trips completed by participating drivers, with some GoRide drivers completing more than 650 trips per month.

These results reflect broader performance across the Curb Flow network. Drivers using the platform spend 26% more time on trips and complete 16% more hired miles, while Curb’s nationwide booking volume has quadrupled since 2023.

Dorel Tamam, Vice President of the Mobile Business Unit at Curb, says: “With Curb Flow now live in London, we are opening the network to additional partners, regardless if they run their own system or not. The results show what happens when you remove the barriers to consistent, aggregated demand and supply.”

The GoRide partnership has become one of the strongest proof points for the Curb Flow model in North America, with consistent month-over-month growth in trip volume and driver participation since launch. That track record is now informing how Curb approaches new supply partnerships in the UK market.

Ermias Wosenu, CEO and Founder GoRide, says: “Integrating with Curb Flow gave our drivers access to a significant new source of demand without requiring them to change how they work. The volume of trips through the platform has grown consistently since we launched, and it has been a straightforward way for us to expand what we can offer our drivers.”

Curb Flow launched in London in March and is currently operating with an initial network of supply and demand partners, bringing additional trip opportunities to black cab drivers through a single platform.

Operators and technology providers ready to join the next phase of Curb Flow in London can find out more and register their interest at https://www.gocurb.co.uk/curb-flow.

Notes to Editors

Curb analysed the data from operating cabs during March 2026 in the Washington DC district.
